Military Button ?

[mark43]

Hi all. Found this digging today. Does anyone have any info on this button that could help me out? We have a closed air base in our area and I am not sure if this could be from World War 1 or World War 2. This button has an E on it with crossed rifles. Would the E signify the company?

Nice find, Mark! It's a U.S. Army Infantry enlisted man's collar disk. As you guessed, it's from WWI or shortly thereafter, and the "E" does indeed represent Company E.
